Abstract

Described herein is a bedsheet comprising a first fabric region and a second fabric region, wherein the first fabric region exhibits reduced friction as compared to the second fabric region.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A bedsheet comprising a first fabric region and a second fabric region, wherein the first fabric region exhibits reduced friction as compared to the second fabric region. 
     
     
         2 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the first fabric region is configured to underlay the head of a user when sleeping and thereby reduce hair tangling. 
     
     
         3 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the first fabric region comprises from about 5% to about 75% of the surface area of the bedsheet. 
     
     
         4 . The bedsheet of  claim 3 , wherein the first fabric region comprises from about 5%, about 10%, about 15%, about 20%, about 25%, about 30%, and 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 55%, about 60%, or about 70% to about 10%, about 15%, about 20%, about 25%, about 30%, and 35%, about 40%, about 45%, about 50%, about 55%, about 60%, about 70%, or about 75% of the surface area of the bedsheet. 
     
     
         5 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the bedsheet is a fitted bedsheet. 
     
     
         6 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the bedsheet is a flat bedsheet. 
     
     
         7 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the bedsheet is lined with a water-impermeable lining. 
     
     
         8 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the bedsheet is sized to fit a bassinet, crib, or toddler bed. 
     
     
         9 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the first fabric region comprises reduced friction fibers. 
     
     
         10 . The bedsheet of  claim 9 , wherein the reduced friction fibers are selected from the group consisting of silk, polyester, nylon, acetate, acrylics, polyethylene, polyurethane, bamboo, and combinations thereof. 
     
     
         11 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the first fabric region is treated with a friction reducing component. 
     
     
         12 . The bedsheet of  claim 11 , wherein the friction reducing component is selected from the group consisting of fluorocarbon polymers, boron, molybdenum sulfide, silicone, siloxane, fluoroesters, fluorinated ethylene propylene copolymers, perfluoroelastomers, polychloro, trifluoroethylene homo- and copolymers, silicone/silane modified polymers, graphite, fluorinated high molecular weight polyolefins or cyclic organic compounds, non-modified polyolefins, fluoropolymers, homopolymers thereof, copolymers thereof, and combinations thereof. 
     
     
         13 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the second fabric region comprises fibers selected from the group consisting of cotton, nylon, polyester, acetate, acrylics, polyethylene, polyurethane, bamboo, and combinations thereof. 
     
     
         14 . The bedsheet of  claim 13 , wherein the second fabric comprises a fabric selected from the group consisting of Egyptian cotton, flannel, percale, jersey, sateen, satin, fleece, or combinations thereof. 
     
     
         15 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the first fabric region comprises silk and the second fabric region comprises cotton. 
     
     
         16 . The bedsheet of  claim 15 , wherein the first fabric region consists of silk and the second fabric region consists of cotton. 
     
     
         17 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the first fabric region is configured to resemble a cartoon or item pleasing to a child, such as an animal face or an object from nature. 
     
     
         18 . The bedsheet of  claim 1 , wherein the first fabric region is removably attached to the second fabric region. 
     
     
         19 . A bedsheet set comprising the bedsheet of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         20 . The bedsheet set of  claim 19 , further comprising crib items such as bumper pads, decorative pillows, a blanket, a quilt, and/or a mobile.
